After a pandemic-induced break, the World Girls’ Ice Hockey Weekend will be back this year and is scheduled for 15-17 October 2021.

While some countries may still be facing restrictions and may have to pass this year, the IIHF welcomes try-hockey events for girls and women in all countries and regions where it is feasible considering the Covid-19 situation and government measures.

The World Girls’ Ice Hockey Weekend is a global opportunity for girls to try out ice hockey as a new sport. Thousands of participants have taken part in the editions since 2011. It is a chance for girls and women of any age to come together to learn the basics of ice hockey and play our fantastic sport.

Events can be organized by national and regional ice hockey associations, leagues, club teams or any group that wants to come together to support the growth of women’s hockey and spreading the word.
